on again deputy clerk day clerk kay diewben gay. secondly, if we could, on behalf of the entire board of supervisors i'd ask if we could adjourn today's meeting in memory of former san matillo county supervisor mike nevin. mike was a very good friend of mine, someone who i looked up to a great deal, someone who i really saw as a role model in this job. prior to entering politics, mike was a 27 year member of the san francisco police departmenth9f rising to the level of inspector. he then in his adopted home of daly city joined the daly city city council, served there for 10 years serving as mayor for two years. he then stepped up to the san matillo county board of supervisors and served on that

board for 12 years. in his collective 10 year at both daly city city council and county board of supervisors he served on a variety of regional agencies, mtc, caltrain, bay area management district you name it, he probably served on it. what i got to know him well on was transportation issues. when i had the pleasure of serving at the caltran board where supervisor cohen is now, you

of title. i think the title he cared most about was father, grandfather, brother cousin. his family was so absolutely important to him. i read through his obituary, and it reminds me to some extent of how i felt after i wrote and read my father's own obituary in that it's a wonderfulm but it doesn't come close to really saying who this man was. mike gave his entire life to his brother and sister, both as family, but also when i say that i mean collectively, his entire society. truly someone who will be missed dearly. his wife of 45 years kathleen his three children, one of whom is a member of our own police department lt. mike nevin. a great man who leaves a great legacy, not just in san mateo county but throughout the region. i know i can say it on behalf of

everyone here, his family is.lnk sent our deepest condolences. >> presidentcondolences if we could -- >> president chiu: if we could adjourn as a board for mike nevin and kay gulbengay. >> clerk calvillo: supervisor campos. >> supervisor campos: thank you supervisor elsbernd, for the very moving comments about supervisor nevin. i have a couple of items, and i'd like to begin by just talking about an item that i think has been debated many times here. and i don't know if this will be the last time that it's mentioned at the board of supervisors. probably not. but i do want to thank the mta board of directors today who just a couple of hours ago, voted unanimously to approve the implementation of the free muni for low income youth program. and i want to thank all of the

members of the board of directors for their support. i also want to take this opportunity to thank my colleagues on the board of supervisors, who were cosponsors ofáthis project. supervisors avalos, president chiu, supervisors cohen kim, mar, and olague. thank you very much. more importantly we want to thank the members of the community who have been working on this pilot project for actually more than two years. power chinatown development community sorry, san francisco youth commission, urban habitat and jamestown community center. i also want to thank the+hjp

i on a more personal level want to thank sheila haggan from my office who first talked to me bg-á this item two years ago. and it is i think completely accurate to say that we would not be here today without her tenacious knowledge advocacy, and it's been an honor to see this unfold and to get this to this pointáb the second item that i want to talk about is an item that idúá am cosponsoring with supervisor cohen, who has been doing a great deal of work since her election, on the issue of reproductive rights. it's a resolution commemorating the 40th anniversary of rowe v wade at the and commending the work of those in san francisco. the 40th anniversary, the

landmark supreme court decision, and those of us who have seen the importance of this know that the access to legal and affordable family planning has been integral to expandingjpzc tuns for success and satisfaction by women and girls in their emotional, economic educational and professional spheres. one in three american women will actually have an abortion by age 45. and 99% ofenu couples have used birth control. and we know that the denial of abortion care perpetuates poverty because what we see is that women of lower income are five times more likely to have ununintended pregnancies. we have seen unfortunately in the last few years a tendency to, throughout the country to

undermine the right of women to choose whether or not to have an abortion. states have actually enacted twice as many antichoice laws in 2011 as they did in any recent previous year. many states are actually still shutting down crucial reproductive health and family planning services for women throughout the country. the house of representatives recently actually voted, in its most recent session to defund title 10 which is the only federal program that is exclusively dedicated to family planning and reproductive-%( +/ health, including agencies like planned parenthood. we in san francisco, can be proud of our history and our ÷;f protecting the right of women to choose, and here in san francisco because of the efforts of many people, including supervisor cohen, were one of the first cities to pass an ordinance forbidding crisis pregnancy centers that do not provide or refer abortion care

from continuing to use deceptive advertising to take advantage of vulnerable pregnant women. so it's something to be proud of. and our own mayor has also cosponsored a resolution approved by the u.s. conference of mayors where the right of women to choose was also reaffirmed. we will be having a celebration of women life and liberty on january 26, 2013, at jefferson herman plaza. through this resolution, we as a board ofb reaffirming the importance of reproductive health rights and justice and we commend the work of the7[ úv pro-choice workers, and service providers, who make sure that the rights embedded ingfjh rowe v wade are protected in san francisco. the last item i have is an item -- and i want to thank supervisor christina+!jpgn al gi olague

for working on this. a number of serious allegations have been made and there will be investigations with respect to those. but where i think it's important for us as a board to focus is what's happening in terms of the agency'sfw the needs of the residents of the housing authority developments. ium( ;h will remind folks that the housingjp'e authority was actually established by this board of supervisors in 1938. it is actually the oldest housing authority in the state of california, and the 17th largest in the countries. and it is clear from talking to legal counsel, that we have oversight responsibilitiess!ja= and the ability to understand how they are performing, in their responsibilities. again the focus is not on the individuals or personalities, but simply what is happening to address the needs of the residents. and so with that in mind, i just want to note that with the

support of supervisor olague i will be, in the next few days, introducing a motion requesting that the board's budget and legislative analyst simply conduct a review, a performance review of how the authority, how the agency is performing its duties. i think it's something that we can all benefit from from past performance, audits and reviews we have learned a lot about various agencies, muni being an example. and i think that to the extent that good things are happening, it's1q@÷ an opportunity for us to highlight and showcase those positive things. and to the extent that there aren't good things happening it's good for us to also learn that and/c better. so i look forward to that work and to my colleagues supporting the budget and legislative analyst undertaking that task. and, you know, once that task is completed, if it is approved, hopefully we'll have an

opportunity to have a substantive discussion about what's working well, what subject, and how we can make sure all of the needs of our residents are addressed. as someone who has four housing developments in my district i know that6 to make sure that the needs of those residents are addressed.3xpdx the rest i submit. thank you. >> clerk calvillo: thank you supervisor campos. supervisor wiener. >> supervisor>( x] wiener: thank you madam clerk. today i'm introducing two hearing requests. the first i'm introducing along with supervisor cohen, relates to high speed rail in san francisco. as you know, the the state legislature voted to move forward with some very important high speed rail project. the northern california segment is slated to receive $600 million in proposition 1(a) funding as an early investment. many of us are committed to the ultimate success of high speed rail and caltrain electrification and we therefore

would like to hear an update on san francisco's participation in this early investment. we understand that the first step is moving forward on long desired electrification of caltrans but we need to know what that means fora p30 san francisco. we need to know how the city's going to"7 project, along with our partners in7÷[ñ the peninsula and south bay and regionally. we need to know how we are financing our share of the local match. at this hearing we will discuss next steps and including which agencies are working on this what theirc piyñ timelines are and how we can make sure everyone is working3(( byi together. the second hearing request has to do with recent friends in robberies including armed robberies in san francisco. we've seen a spike in a number of robberies, many of them around smart phones and ipads, whether people robbing people on buses. recently in my district, we've had a string of armed robberies in residential areas, in the

middle of the day, very scary incidents. i know this is happening around the city. so this will provideá opportunity for the police department to present jwh÷ its -- an overview and strategies and also a chance to educate the public on what we're doing, and how the public can help protect itself. thankséj:x you. >> clerk calvillo: thank you, supervisor wiener. supervisor cohen. >> supervisor cohen: thank you verygyt)7 much. i just want to take a moment to say a couple of words for a gentleman that passed. his name was percy hater. he passed away this past saturday december 1 at the aimg of # 2. although he was born in tyler texas he spentu in san francisco. he's the father of five kids, three daughters and two sons. one of his daughters was a friend of one of myl he was a.a( #u5 notoriously known

to be funny and loving. he was a plumber a contractor, small businessr and he was someonehjr confidence in his workers in his team. he didn't cut corners, and he always went above and beyond the job at hand. when i spoke to his children, i asked them what their fondest memory would be of their father and they remember him as being ac/nn6 great cook, generous and kind and greeting everyone with a smile. i would have to agree with that statement. the last time i saw mr. hater was at sally's restaurant. he was standing in line in front of me taking a long time to pay for his meal. i said mr. hater, hurry=[j-w up. and turnedfdjal around and smiled. he was about a quarter short. instead of fumbling in his pocket i gave him a quarter. that was the last time i saw him and one of my fondest memories i

have of him. he was a great man. i'd like to close out the board in he will be missed. thank you. >> clerk calvillo: mr. president seeing no other names on the roster that concludes roll call for introd/bj@çé4j4(p&c"p% >> president chiu: thank you. why don't we go to general public comment. >> the clerk: now is the opportunity for the public to comment generally for :q up to two minutesç1jy3 on items within the subject matter jurisdh÷ the board including items on the adoption without reference to committee calendar, please note that public comment is not allowedu%( .x on those items which have alreadya"%( board committee. speakers using translation assistance will bejágiven twice the amount of time. if you would like a document to be displayed on thewc projector statep?( :h such and remove it when the meeting returns to live meeting. >> president chiu: let's hear from our first speaker. >> good afternoon, supervisors. stop the corporate rape of our public library don't give money to the friends of the libraryo e don't accept money from the friends of the library. today and next week i will be

speaking without my usual graphics on the premise that anything different might cause you to look up. ford,jtx those whojdc do not visit the chamber it is obvious in the broadcast that supervisors give no indication that they are paying any attention because so many people have complained recently the supervisors do not displaytñj brazenly as they used to. in the 1990's there was a supervisor named sue bierman who one day during a budget hearing stated all the departments in the city create some0( ñ opposition or controversy except the library, and that she, quote never gets any letters critical of the library. to this day, i have no idea whether she was intentionally insulting me or whether the staff threw away my letters in$[ the trash befored i wonder if i asked for a show of hands now how many of the present supervisors have never seen a letter from me. i won't do that of course because the question would imply that you're listening to me now.

let me tell you anyway that if you haveó#hñ never seen a letter from me and you've never heard any criticism of the public-private partnership that is the library department someone on your staff deserves a bonus. the trouble is that if you don't listen you have no jp control over how corrupt the city can become,4 or how vulnerable you are to that'$%($' corruption is a bottomless pit.ts(ñ knowledge is the only limit to that corruption. if they can buy your ignorance, money has too much power. i say all the time that i care about the library, but you don't have to care about the library. it is not about the library. if they can buy your ignorance, they can destroy what you do care about. in fact, there is no z what they can destroy, because they have destroyed democracyóm itself. and that is why, as always the lies cost more than theícj money. thank you.
